Central Catholic High School has submitted an application for a new three-story Student Center at the entry to the campus at S. Neville St and Winthrop St. The new Student Center will be at the site of the existing gymnasium, which would be demolished. The building will include a one-level parking garage located underneath the building.

This application follows a submittal of the Central Catholic Institutional Master Plan, which Planning Commission reviewed and made positive recommendation on to City Council at its December 10, 2024 meeting.

• The new building will be approximately 100,000 Square Feet (including the garage level)

• The proposal includes a 74-vehicle garage with access from S. Neville St. Some surface parking spaces be removed on but the addition of the garage will result in a net increase in parking on the campus from 200 to 214 spaces.

• Uses within the building include Administrative Offices, Gymnasium, Locker Rooms, Weight Room, Wrestling Room, Classroom, Lecture Room, Cafeteria, and Kitchen.

The project will be reviewed by the Zoning Board of Adjustment and the Planning Commission. Details will be posted below and on the City Planning Public Notices & Meetings Calendar when they become available. There will also be a Development Activities Meeting with the two community organizations in the neighborhood - Squirrel Hill Urban Coalition and Oakland Business Improvement District.

The project will require review by the following boards and commissions, at which the public will have the opportunity to provide public comment:

• Zoning Board of Adjustment. When a hearing date is scheduled, ZBA materials will be provided on this ZBA page for the proposal. (Please see timeline for dates)

• Planning Commission. Materials for the Planning Commission meetings will be posted on the Planning Commission page. (Please see timeline for dates)
